Hourglass workout is hands down the absolute best women's bootcamp in the GTA - and I definitely would not be surprised if it was the best in all of North America.
Before I started hourglass, I rigorously researched all of the women's bootcamp options in the GTA. I saw nothing but good reviews about HG and was amazed by the before and afters so I decided to give the program a try for myself..since then it is safe to say that I was instantly addicted.
I joined hourglass when I was 7 month postpartum, and have been a member since the grand opening in Brampton (over 2years ago). I had gained 70lbs while pregnant (went from 125lbs to just under 200lbs :| ) and was able to lose all the pregnancy weight and build lean, fabulous muscle through this phenomenal bootcamp! I have recommended this program (specifically the Brampton location) to my friends, family and coworkers - all whom have said it was absolutely life changing.
When you join any HG location, you receive a meal plan complete with recipes, tips and grocery lists. HG also holds monthly nutrition workshops and fun days. The classes itself are always fun, challenging and highly effective. Every day is a new challenge and the support from the trainers is invaluable.
I believe every HG location is excellent however I truly believe the Brampton location is extra special. This is due to the absolutely AMAZING owner - Ruby. For me, she is the best part of the program. She dedicates her entire life to motivating women in achieving their fitness goals and uplifts all whom crosses her path. Her passion is highly contagious, and she is extremely knowledgeable in health and fitness. Moreover, she is very down to earth and is always eager to do whatever she can to help. You can often find her walking around the class adjusting form, providing individual guidance and offering words of encouragement- she is very hands on. Ruby also makes herself available outside of class hours to answer any nutrition/fitness related questions. For example. whenever I am unsure if I should eat something I send her a quick picture of the item via snapchat, facebook, email and she ALWAYS responds in a timely fashion - she is basically a trainer in a pocket :) and I truly appreciate this. Personally, Ruby is an inspiration for me - I simply cannot say enough good things about her. She makes my days and I absolutely adore her :)
Furthermore, as of one month ago, HG Brampton just moved into a permanent location (We were moving around quite a bit before). Ruby has made this location "home" and it is always an extremely immaculate, aesthetically pleasing space. You can tell that she poured her heart in soul into every detail of the unit - from the "That Ass Doe" pillows to the perfectly lined up dumb bells :P
I absolutely love this program, specifically the Brampton location and RUBY...I literally made this yelp account just to write a review on it :)....it is THAT amazing! When you join hourglass, you don't just join a workout program - you join a community of likeminded women who motivate and support each other. I HIGHLY encourage any female who is looking for a truly amazing workout program to join this one - it will change your life. & if you are lucky enough to join the Brampton location then you've hit a goldmine :) read more
